Thanks for the opportunity to talk about my organization.
We're essentially an analysis shop. As I mentioned in my opening remarks, we don't collect any information. We receive information from all our government partners. At the end of the day we're only as good as the information that is shared with us.
We have 13 government partners and we receive information from all of them. We also receive information from our allies. The role of the analysts, at the end of the day, is to look at all that information we've received—it's all information related to terrorism threats—and to sift through it to assess the credibility and the reliability of the information, and to make judgments on the potential threats to Canada, whether at home or abroad. Essentially, in a nutshell, that's what we do.
